The Hinwood Institute Book Club - Poisonous People
Description
At The Hinwood Institute, we often recommend and give away books that inspire new thinking and practical action.
Our free monthly book club conversation gives you a chance to explore these ideas with a small group of open and curious people and consider how to apply them in your own work.
Why we chose this book
In Poisonous People, psychologist Dr Leanne ten Brinke draws on research into psychopathy, narcissism, Machiavellianism and sadism to explain how harmful personality traits can appear in everyday relationships, teams and leadership.
The book offers practical guidance to help us recognise concerning patterns, protect our boundaries and make clearer decisions about how to respond.
We'll explore 3 key items:
How dark personality traits can affect trust, relationships and workplace culture
The patterns and warning signs that are easy to overlook
Practical ways to set boundaries, reduce harm and respond with greater clarity
